Port of Savannah, Yesterday and Today | Georgia Stories

Georgia products travel and are used around the world. Ships bring in containers loaded with goods from blue jeans to televisions. According to David Schaller of the Georgia Ports Authority, in one year these containers lined up end to end would stretch from Savannah to Los Angeles. The 4.5 million tons of cargo that enter the port is distributed to consumers via highways and railways.
